GA-6 Special election discussion thread

If Osoff keeps running this solid of a campaign, he could actually in this thing.  If he loses, it'll be by low-to-mid single digits.

What were the 2016 Presidential results in that district again ?

Did Hillary win it, considering she won virtually all of Atlanta ?

Trump won by a point. So Ossoff didn't exactly run better than Hillary.

And that's the deciding point which simply proves me right (whether Holmes likes it or not): The GOP did better in a special election (in which the opposition always overperformes) than Trump did. There's nothing like an anti-Trump wave. Only in your dreams.

This, ladies and germs, is the prime example of Pollyanna Syndrome.

Ossoff raised $500K today

The guy is a monster. I'll give him that.

If he wins here, he could be a threat in an open Senate seat down the line.

I was just thinking that. If Republicans really are malicious enough to try to gerrymander him out in either 2018 or 2020, that Perdue's Senate seat is always up for grabs.

Pretty sure the next open seat in GA would be tilt D. I expect GA pull a CO transition in the next decade.

I think VA would be a better comparison.  CO at least has a slight chance to go (non-Atlas) red in the near future.
